Looking at the life of the elderly in Japan after retirement, and then looking at the elderly in China, there is no comparison! After reading it, it is really incredible.
Last month, I went to Japan to visit my family, and I didn't know whether to say something or not. After thinking about it, I decided to say it, otherwise I would always feel panicked.
Originally, I was planning to stay for about 10 days and come back. But my cousin wouldn't let me come back so soon, she said that it was rare to have time to come here, let me stay for another 10 days, and I should accompany her. I don't think it was easy for him to stay in a foreign country for another 10 days.
During this time, I saw the living conditions of the elderly in Japan, and it simply refreshed my cognition, and I couldn't believe that this was true.
I think many people think that the standard of living in Japan is better than in Japan, and that Japan is a developed country, and that wages and pensions should be higher.
The happiness index of the elderly in Japan is even higher in their later years, N0 This is just your hearsay, or you see Japan on TV just superficially beautiful.
Do you know the real retirement life of the elderly in Japan? After listening to it, you will change your mind. There is no real retirement in Japan, unlike most retirees in mainland China, who retire at the age of 60, and some who start to retire at the age of 55.
After retirement, some elderly people just take a walk, play Tai Chi, dance square dances, etc., and live a casual life.
In Japan, the retirement life of these elderly people is not so ideal, it can be said that it is a kind of torment, and it is to live to old age.
Even if I retire, I have to go out to find a job to earn money to support my family, and there is a factory near my cousin's house, which can be seen from the balcony. Every morning, you can see these old people making breakfast, busy with everything, and one of them has all white hair.
I talked to my cousin about it, and my cousin said that the old man was 85 years old, and the younger one was already 75 years old. Where are you still looking for a job to earn money?
Secondly, the pension of the elderly in Japan is very small
They still come out to work at such an old age not because of how hard they work and how diligent they are, but because they are forced by life, because they have little pension after retirement.
Not enough to support basic living expenses, so they have to come out and find work to support themselves. The retired elderly in the mainland are much happier than them, the pension is much higher than theirs, and they do not have to worry about food and clothing, and there are many old people who walk, sing, dance, and often travel every day.
Thirdly, the elderly in Japan basically live to old age and do not retire.
Due to the aging of Japan, which has led to a serious shortage of labor, it is common to see seventy or eighty-year-old people sweeping the streets and alleys of Japan.
Or they work as dishwashers in restaurants, and even some elderly people go to carry and deliver goods, these elderly people are just cheap laborers in Japan, and their wages are very low by their bosses.
However, the elderly in the mainland can live a real retirement life after retirement, and basically they will not look for a job again.
Even the elderly in rural areas will not look for a job after the age of 60, usually raise chickens at home, cook, help with grandchildren, plant vegetables and farms, and have free time without being managed, and they are not afraid of going hungry.
Fourth, the children of the elderly in Japan cannot be counted on at all.
There is an old saying in the mainland that raising children to prevent old age, but this is not the case at all in Japan, where the elderly in Japan make a living by picking up waste after retirement, regardless of whether they have a job or not.
Some people may say that these elderly Japanese people have no children? They need to pick up waste to support themselves? They have children, but because they live at a fast pace and are under a lot of pressure, and they can't even take care of themselves, so how can they have time to take care of their parents.
Even if they go to them for something, they can't take care of it, it is better to do it themselves, even if it is only a meager income.
The elderly in the mainland are happy, most of the children are relatively filial, and their parents will do their best to take care of them.
Therefore, the elderly in China are much happier than the elderly in Japan. Do you think the lives of the elderly in Japan are happier than those in the mainland? Welcome to express your views, share them here today, and see you next time
